noname - shadow man lyrics
[intro: phoelix, themind, cam o’bi]
how do you see me?
how do you love me?
how to do you remember me?
i’m a rotten nightingale
i hope that darkness keeps you well
when i can’t fall asleep at night
i blindly taught myself to fight
aw shadow man shadow box, please keep your hands up
and if you get knocked down don’t forget to stand up
bless the nightingale
darkness keep you well
bless the nightingale
darkness keep you well
[verse 1: noname]
shadow man shadow box, dance in the park with me
this resurrected agony there’s apathy for caskets
everything i ever loved i lost in the magic
i claim by the river, my body delivered
when i die there’s 27 rappers at my funeral
moses wrote my name in gold and kanye did the eulogy
remember all the bashfulness, understand the truancy
here i stand in front of a college dropout
my music was a church we on spare i hop out
met a gypsy in la and she reading my palm tree
mysterious situation like kissing the concrete i.e getting money
i been close to heaven
baby claim he love me, hold me down forever
i never should have bought this halo
he waiting for me at his table
my funeral a disney fable
cause the king bout to take me home
[verse 2: saba]
preach church tabernacle, tallah-ssee sunshine
southern is my bloodline we know it’ll come time
to go, and though i leave like alumni
i’m lying like a lullaby and quiet like my tongue tied
alone, bury me in satin tell the pastors say the sash is the same cl-ss we behold
first role, and if ashes turn to ashes then i’m back in my first form with a dust storm with a corner, and c-ke
morbid or late, lord give lord take
viva la muerte, mortal man
less love, more hate
more like mortician, we need our faith
funeral home lookin like a home that i used to live in
you wasn’t supposed to go so soon i took it for granted
maybe we’ll meet the next life, maybe another planet
open my soul but then it’ll end with an open casket
[verse 3: smino]
uh ay
tippy toe on a tightrope
leaning on green and it gon be a dice roll
i’m feenin a feline who mindset afeni
i got two packs for us
gold on my gumline done got rich off my tongue
sticky dro in the tight roll
cleaning my grievances
as a late heathen i said pledge allegiance
i, never believed in y’all system i needed more
and i done went figaro with the finger roll
landed wrong split my head and start leaking songs
and i’m worser than they worst, they make a n-gg- live forever
flock with them birds, my heart stay lighter than a feather
it’s gon be n-gg-s boomin’ at my funeral
tell em play metro boomin’ at my funeral
st. louis taught me death could be your neighbor, stay away
don’t take the family for granted better days away
[outro: phoelix, themind, cam o’bi]
bless the nightingale
darkness keep you well
bless the nightingale
darkness keep you well
bless the nightingale
darkness keep you well
bless the nightingale
darkness keep you well
